The next sentence is: Villains grow together.

From: "The Analects of Confucius·Shuer"

Original sentence: Confucius said: "A gentleman is magnanimous, while a villain is always concerned."

Interpretation: Confucius Said: "A gentleman has a broad mind, but a villain is always sad."

Dang: clearing, washing.

Open-minded: broad-minded, open-minded and tolerant. Qi: In ancient times, the meaning was phonetic. Conghu, Cong尗, and 嗗 also sound. 戉(yuè), axe. The first Qi refers to an ax, and the second Qi refers to axing others and attacking others. The villain does not cultivate himself, but cultivates others. Chang Qiqi: often sad and troubled.

Confucius believed that a gentleman should have a broad mind and be able to tolerate others and accommodate various events, regardless of personal gains and losses. It is impossible to become a gentleman if you are narrow-minded, have difficulties with others and yourself, are often sad, and feel uneasy. Extended information

Meaning:

A gentleman walks the way of a gentleman, and the way of a gentleman should be based on self-cultivation. Self-cultivation is about cultivating oneself, not cultivating others, and cultivating yourself into a piece. Like a sponge, it can accommodate all difficulties, resistance and obstacles. This is the way of a gentleman. The higher the ability to tolerate, the higher the path of cultivation; the stronger the ability to tolerate, the stronger the realm of cultivation.

Influence of character achievements:

Confucius’ educational activities not only cultivated many students, but also the educational theories he proposed based on practice laid a theoretical foundation for ancient Chinese education.

He advocated that taxes should be lighter and the apportionment of corvees should not delay the farming season. "The Analects of Confucius Shuer" records that Confucius also preached to the politicians at that time, asking them not to be too extravagant and to pay attention to frugality.

He said: "Luxury is not inferior, frugality is solid. Rather than being inferior, it is better to be solid." At the same time, he also advocated "being frugal and loving others." This includes applying Confucius' "benevolence" thought to the economic field.

Confucius clearly put forward famous aesthetic propositions such as "beauty lies within" and "different people have different opinions" in Yi Xue. "Tongzi Asks the Book of Changes" published by the People's Publishing House puts forward the Mei Zong based on the Yi Zong - the beauty of masculinity and femininity; the beauty of life; the beauty of freedom; and the beauty of harmony. He believes that "the beauty of yin and yang, the beauty of life, the beauty of freedom, and the beauty of harmony can be said to be the ancestors of aesthetics."

Confucius traveled extensively throughout his life. From his long travel career, he realized a profound philosophy of life and formed a unique perspective on travel. Confucius "revisited" and opposed psychology and behaviors such as "residence" and "homeland". He even regarded the desire for a peaceful home and nostalgia for his hometown as the distinguishing mark between a gentleman and a villain.
